We are very appreciative of his many kindnesses, and we sincerely extend our very best wishes for a most pleasant future. Page 5 The Passing Scene We are a part of it. We live in it. We touch it and it touches us. It is a thousand things happening simultaneously. A kaleidoscope. There is joy, laughter, music, chatter and nonsense. It is froth. It lasts for only a brief moment. It is the wonderful season of youth . when everything is wonderful. And it is now. a) wee | —_ - -z_ Te er oe ‘o.

PATTY HUNTER Secretary of the Benton Conmauniny Consolidated Schools age PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE A To the Graduate: You have reached a milestone in your educational career but many fine opportunities lie ahead for you who are interested. Finish your education and training with enthusiasm. Your teachers have tried to offer you not only the funda- mentals for a broad education but also have tried to spark your interest in learning and help you cultivate the ability to get along with others. You soon will be adults directing the affairs of the com- munity, the nation, and the world. Never in the history of the world has mankind needed more competent leaders. We hope you have learned more than lessons from the text- books, such lessons as morality, respect for your fellow man, and honesty. Use these lessons well! Your Principal, rose 10 R.
